Postdoctoral Position

Department of Computer Science

Applications are invited for a postdoc position in the Computer Science Department at the College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, VA, USA. This is funded by two NSF projects with overlapping objectives; First to extend the PRIMME eigenvalue package (esp. toward generalized eigenvalue and SVD problems). Second, to research variance reduction mechanisms for the stochastic estimation of the trace of functions of matrices (esp. inverse and exponential). The research is partly in collaboration with the Physics Department at W&M and the DOE's Jefferson Lab.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in a scientific computing area, strong background in numerical linear algebra and high performance computing, and good programming skills in C/C++. The position is for one year, renewable for a second year based upon performance.

To apply submit a vita and the names of two references at https://jobs.wm.edu , Position Number: F0842W. Reviewing of applications starts on October 20, 2014 and continues until the position is filled.
